As youngsters, we (Randy and Lesa) spent summers working on farms owned by our relatives; so we learned about food production, self-reliance, and sustainability. As adults, we became engineers and managers for a large corporation, and were transferred many times. As time passed, we became increasingly concerned about our food supply, and tried to become more self-reliant with each move; but were hampered by suburban restrictions.
Then, after transferring to Northeastern Ohio, we stumbled upon a large farm that was being subdivided; and that was located only minutes from work. One ten-acre parcel looked particularly appealing; it was mostly wooded, but had a southerly slope and one level corner of an old farm field. We thought the southerly exposure would be perfect for a passive solar home, and our escape from suburbia – we purchased the lot.
Perhaps we should've done a bit more homework; as we started clearing the land and preparing for that home, we found rocks (boulder-size) everywhere we dug. And, those nice wooded slopes were covered with brambles. Despite this, we gradually built our new home, and eventually escaped suburbia. After the home, we added a deck, patio, barn, chicken coop, and fencing; and ran into rocks and brambles every step of the way. Thus, it became Bramblestone Farm.
At Bramblestone, we believe that food grown without antibiotics, hormones, artificial fertilizers, insecticides, or herbicides is important; so we try to produce our own without these additives. We raise heritage Buckeye chickens for meat and eggs, Nigerian Dwarf goats for milk, honeybees for honey, and grow various fruits and vegetables. Today we sell the excess eggs and honey that the chickens and bees supply as well as goat milk or goat milk & honey skin-care products.
We try to be self-reliant, so the goats and chickens forage on four wooded acres that have been fenced, the old farm field is used for growing produce and alfalfa, bedding from the goats and chickens is composted for fertilizer, and the honey bees pollinate the fruits and vegetables. It's not practical for us to grow the grain for the goats and chickens, but we do try to buy from local organic suppliers – we prefer to support local farms, not far away feed mills and trucking companies.
Each spring, we'll also have Nigerian Dwarf kids for sale. The planned parentage for the kids appears on the website "Kidding Page", and details on the parents can be found by clicking does and bucks. All Bramblestone Nigerian Dwarves are dual registered AGS/ADGA, and all adults have been tested and certified to be free of CAE, CL, Johne's, TB, and Brucellosis.

England and Wales could see 'record-breaking' downpours every winter for next decade
Met Office's new supercomputer has forecast many more extreme weather events as climate conditions change.
By Roger Baird
July 25, 2017 11:46 BST
England could suffer "record-breaking" downpours every winter over next decade, the Met Office warns.
The weather bureau's new supercomputer has predicted there is a one in three chance of floods bringing chaos to at least one English or Welsh region each year.
Canadian Mormon with 24 wives and 145 children found guilty of polygamy
Bank of England concerned by 'spiral of complacency' over consumer lending
Oldham siege: Gunman holding woman hostage at house in Shaw
Met experts say the increased risk comes from climate change and a higher recent incidence of extreme downpours.
Across the winter of 2013-14, a series of storms hit the UK leading to extensive flooding in many parts. Rainfall in much of southern England and the Midlands was the heaviest in 100 years, with the clean-up bill for the Thames valley alone topping £1bn.
December 2015 saw similar floods in the south-east, while Storm Desmond hit the north-west causing widespread flooding and storm damage.
The Met had to use its supercomputer to calculate the risks of further downpours over the coming ten years, as the changes to the climate have made past record less reliable.
It said the computer allowed experts to model relevant data from 1,750 winters, rather than information from 35 relevant winters that had been available to it.
The bureau's analysis revealed a 7% risk of record monthly rainfall in the south east region in any given winter.
It added that when other English and Welsh regions were considered, the risk of at least one of them being swamped by a record deluge rose to 34% chance.
The Met's Dr Vikki Thompson said: "Our computer simulations provided one hundred times more data than is available from observed records.
"Our analysis showed that these events could happen at any time and it's likely we will see record monthly rainfall in one of our UK regions in the next few years."
This new research approach has been dubbed the 'unseen' method, to emphasise that this work anticipates events that have not yet been observed.

obscuring the outside world in a sullen gloom.
of a smog that obscures all bliss and contentment.
isolated in a sea of consuming darkness and sorrow.
depression and anxiety are the wardens of my captivity.
Complicated emotions wound tight like a noose around my neck.
The tense anxiety of existence that dominates every fiber of my being.
How else do I explain what it's like to traverse this world as me?
Should I lie to you, the people I love most, and say it's all going to be fine?
Or do I tell the truth and risk exposing myself to the chaos of your empathy?

Seahawks Channel Allen Iverson During Epic Touchdown Celebration
Tyler Lockett recreates A.I's iconic step over after third quarter TD.
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett knew exactly how he was going to celebrate if he scored against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. And when the moment presented itself, after Russell Wilson connected with Lockett on a 12-yard TD pass in the third quarter, the 26-year old receiver and his teammates recreated Allen Iverson's iconic step over of Tyronn Lue in the 2001 NBA Finals.
Lockett and his teammates had actually planned to use the A.I. celebration during their game against the Los Angeles Rams on November 11, but he instead handed the ball to Floyd Mayweather after scoring a touchdown. "We were supposed to do that against the Rams but I just forgot to do it,'' Lockett said, per the Seattle Times. "So we had to make sure we were going to bring it back.''
According to the Seattle Times, Lockett said they practiced it "probably once'' earlier in the week just so everyone would be on the same page.
The third quarter touchdown gave the Seahawks a 17-13 lead, but there was plenty of back-and-forth scoring before it was all said and done. In the end, Seattle secured a 30-27 victory as veteran Sebastian Janikowski nailed a 31-yard field goal as time expired.
Locket led the Seahawks in receiving with five catches for 107 yards and a TD, as Russell Wilson torched the Panthers for 309 yards and two TDs through the air. With the win, Seattle improved to 6-5 on the season which puts them in the hunt for one of the two NFC Wild Cars spots.

There are certain parts of your house that are used for recreation and relaxation like the wet bar. Be that as it may, to a few people, they will often ask, what is a wet bar?
And why would you want something as such in your house? If you are a person that enjoys having friends over or gathering the family together, having a wet bar at home can do wondrous things for you.
Having access to a part of your house where you can relax or entertain at the same time has its benefits.
With this article, I will help resolve the question, what is a wet bar and why you should consider having it. Plus, I will also share a few benefits of having a wet bar.
To put it simply, a wet bar is a small space or a bar used for mixing alcoholic drinks which also includes a built-in sink or any type of access to running water.
Wet bars became popular or gained attention back in the 1970s and 80s. This is the period when most homeowners started outfitting the basements to have a built-in bar.
This became a trend due to the convenience it provides when entertaining a number of people in homes. Overtime wet bars have had a lot of change as well as additional features.
Nowadays, wet bars are no longer contained in the basements of houses. You can have your own wet bar in your backyard or wherever you feel it fits best.
Wet bars are ideal for people who enjoy inviting and hosting gatherings at their homes. It is a place where your guests can sit, relax, and have a conversation over food and some drinks.
You can also customize your wet bar based on what fits your needs. Best of all, it greatly adds value to your home with the advantages it offers.
Having your very own wet bar at home can have numerous benefits other than a space for merely chilling out or entertaining guests. Here are a few of the benefits that you should know when owning a wet bar.
This is one of the key features and most beneficial elements when you have a wet bar. You do not need to run to the kitchen for water or to wash glasses for drink refills.
A wet bar already has a built-in sink with running water as well as plumbing. This makes it a lot easier to wash those glasses that were used. You also have access to water easily available whenever you need it.
Another key feature of a wet bar is having a mini refrigerator. This also serves as another advantage of owning a wet bar.
The mini refrigerator on the wet bar also means the drinks you will be serving will be cold which is a total plus factor. For sure your family and friends will have the time of their lives while at your home.
Aside from being able to serve cold drinks using your mini fridge in your wet bar, this also means your kitchen fridge will have some free space in it. The absence of a wet bar in the absence of a mini-fridge.
This means you need to stock up those cans or bottles of beers in your kitchen fridge. Eventually, this will take up space that should originally for food.
Having a wet bar with a mini-fridge solves that space issue. Now, all those cans or bottles of beer or any other beverages can be stored in your mini fridge, freeing up space from your kitchen fridge.
Another benefit of having a wet bar is that it frees up and preserves your kitchen. It is a fact that when there are large gatherings at homes, there are particular places that guests would like to linger at.
Usually, this is around the dining area or the kitchen since both food and drinks are readily available in those areas.
The wet bar is also a more ideal place for having your guests at one spot instead of the kitchen which has the tendency to be cramped.
Furthermore, it will be uncomfortable moving around the kitchen, preparing, cooking while having guests hanging about.
The wet bar has stools and a countertop so guests can enjoy food and drinks while having cheerful conversations with one another.
Conclusively, a wet bar is simply a bar that was created mainly for the purpose of conveniently serving beverages as well as entertaining guests at the comfort of your own home.
This attaches value to your home with its benefits like having a specific spot where you can entertaining guests instead of having them linger around your kitchen.
Owning a wet bar also give you the benefits of freeing up space from your kitchen fridge since it has a mini fridge perfect for all the beverages you need to serve. It also has a sink that gives you readily accessible water whenever you might need it.

Bombardier Aerospace Delivers 244 Aircraft in Fiscal Year 2010/11
Business aircraft: 143 deliveries; 107 net orders
Commercial aircraft: 97 deliveries; 93 net orders
Amphibious aircraft: 4 deliveries; 1 net order
Bombardier Aerospace announced today that it delivered 244 aircraft for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2011, compared to 302 aircraft deliveries in the previous fiscal year 2009/10 (year ending January 31, 2010). It received 201 aircraft orders, net of cancellations, compared to 11 orders, net of cancellations, for the previous fiscal year. The fourth quarter was especially strong for business aircraft, with 74 net aircraft orders. Bombardier Aerospace had a solid performance despite the continued impact of the economic environment on the aviation industry and the slower than anticipated recovery from the global financial crisis.
In fiscal year 2010/11, Bombardier delivered 143 business jets, compared to 176 for the same period last fiscal year. For the same time period, Bombardier delivered 97 commercial aircraft, compared to 121 for the previous fiscal year. These delivery results are essentially in line with the previously announced guidance to deliver approximately 15 per cent less business aircraft and 20 per cent fewer commercial aircraft in fiscal year 2010/11, compared to the previous fiscal year.
"With a comprehensive portfolio of products, we believe our fundamentals are strong in the long term for both the business and commercial aircraft markets," said Guy C. Hachey, President and Chief Operating Officer, Bombardier Aerospace. "The aviation industry is cyclical by nature and Bombardier's long history of success is attributable to our ability to face each challenge head-on, focus on the things we can control and put our plans into action," continued Mr. Hachey. "Over the past years, we have taken significant steps to strengthen our operations and continue to invest in our future programs. By meeting the challenges of today and setting our sights on the future, we believe we are creating a loyal customer base for our products and services, and will emerge from this difficult environment a stronger and more efficient company."
Delivery guidance for calendar year 2011
As of February 1, 2011, Bombardier reports its financial results under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Our intent is also to request approval from our Board of Directors in December 2011 to change our financial year-end from a fiscal year-end of January 31, to a calendar year-end of December 31. If this change of year-end reporting is accepted, Bombardier Aerospace's fourth quarter would end on December 31, 2011, covering only two months (November and December), and result in a fiscal year of 11 months rather than a 12-month reporting period.
Going forward under IFRS, Bombardier Aerospace's revenue recognition policy will be aligned for all its aircraft programs and revenues will be recognized only upon delivery of the completed aircraft to the customer. This change in reporting impacts Bombardier's medium and large families of business aircraft (Challenger and Global). Currently, under the Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), Bombardier recognizes deliveries of these business aircraft programs partially at "green" (i.e. before exterior painting and installation of interiors and optional avionics) and partially at delivery of the completed aircraft. Under the new IFRS rules, revenues will be recognized only when the completed aircraft is delivered to the customer.
Our delivery guidance for 2011 is based on IFRS and an 11-month year*.
Bombardier's business aircraft deliveries for the calendar year 2011 are expected to be approximately 150 units.
Bombardier's commercial aircraft deliveries for the calendar year 2011 are expected to be approximately 90 units.
Tables at the end of this press release provide delivery totals and net order totals for business, commercial and amphibious aircraft for fiscal years 2010/11 and 2009/10 under Canadian GAAP.
A world-leading manufacturer of innovative transportation solutions, from commercial aircraft and business jets to rail transportation equipment, systems and services, Bombardier Inc. is a global corporation headquartered in Canada. Its revenues for the fiscal year ended Jan. 31, 2010, were $19.4 billion, and its shares are traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange (BBD). Bombardier is listed as an index component to the Dow Jones Sustainability World and North America indexes. News and information are available at www.bombardier.com.

Fesoterodine belongs to the family of medications called anticholinergics. It is also an antispasmodic. Fesoterodine is used to treat symptoms associated with an overactive bladder, such as urinary urgency (a need to urinate right away), urinary frequency, or urge incontinence (leaking or wetting caused by an unstoppable urge to urinate).
This medication works by preventing contractions or spasms of the muscles in the bladder. This helps to increase bladder capacity and to reduce the involuntary loss of urine, the urge to pass urine, and the frequency of urination.
Each light blue extended-release tablet with "FS" engraved contains 4 mg of fesoterodine fumarate. Non-medicinal ingredients: glyceryl behenate, hypromellose, Indigo Carmine Aluminum Lake, lactose monohydrate, soya lecithin, microcrystalline cellulose, polyethylene glycol/macrogol, polyvinyl alcohol, talc, titanium dioxide, and xylitol.
Each blue extended-release tablet with "FT" engraved contains 8 mg of fesoterodine fumarate. Non-medicinal ingredients: glyceryl behenate, hypromellose, Indigo Carmine Aluminum Lake, lactose monohydrate, soya lecithin, microcrystalline cellulose, polyethylene glycol/macrogol, polyvinyl alcohol, talc, titanium dioxide, and xylitol.
The usual starting dose of fesoterodine for adults is 4 mg once daily. Your doctor may increase the dose to a maximum of 8 mg once daily. Your doctor may recommend the lower 4 mg once-daily dose if you have certain medical conditions such as severe kidney problems. Fesoterodine may be taken with or without food. Swallow the tablet whole with some liquid. Do not chew, crush, or divide the tablet.
Store this medication at room temperature, protect it from moisture, and keep it out of reach of children.

You may be at risk of developing urinary retention (problems emptying your bladder). People with urinary retention should not take fesoterodine.
Drowsiness/reduced alertness: Fesoterodine may cause drowsiness or blurred vision. Avoid activities requiring mental alertness, such as driving, operating machinery, or performing hazardous work, until you know how this medication affects you.
Gastrointestinal disorders: If you have obstructive gastrointestinal disorder (blockage or narrowing in the digestive system) or severe constipation, discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed. You may be at risk of experiencing gastric retention (stomach obstruction or problems affecting the passage and digestion of food). People with gastric retention should not take fesoterodine.
Glaucoma: If you have glaucoma and are receiving treatment for it, discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed. If you experience changes in your vision or eye pain, contact your doctor as soon as possible. People with untreated narrow-angle glaucoma should not take fesoterodine.
Heart conditions: The symptoms of heart disease, heart failure, abnormal heart rhythms, and high blood pressure can be aggravated by fesoterodine. If you have any of these conditions, discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed.
Kidney function: Kidney disease or reduced kidney function may cause this medication to build up in the body, causing side effects. If you have reduced kidney function or kidney disease, discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed. Fesoterodine is not recommended for people with severely reduced kidney function.
Lactose: If you have a rare hereditary condition of galactose intolerance or the Lapp lactose deficiency, you should not take this medication. Fesoterodine extended release tablets contain lactose.
Liver function: Liver disease or reduced liver function may cause this medication to build up in the body, causing side effects. If you have liver problems, discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed. Your doctor may want to test your liver function regularly with blood tests while you are taking this medication. Fesoterodine is not recommended for people with severely reduced liver function.
Myasthenia gravis: If you have myasthenia gravis (a chronic autoimmune neuromuscular disease which causes muscle weakness), discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed.
Soy: If you have a family history of soya intolerance or if you are allergic to soya or peanuts, you should not take this medication. Fesoterodine extended release tablets contain soya lecithin.

The First 48 best detectives: Ronnie Leatherman, Tulsa Homicide
The First 48 season 22 is now airing on A&E, giving television viewers access into the worlds of some truly exceptional police officers. There have been dozens if not hundreds of detectives that the show has been able to spotlight over the years, and as a longtime fan, I wanted to take some space to appreciate those who not only make the show the success that it is but more importantly are so great at what they do.
Disclaimer: In the interest of brevity, these features are limited to detectives who are currently being featured on The First 48 (still on the show)—otherwise I'd be writing dozens of articles and a whole essay about how Justin Ritter and Matt Frazier are my version of Batman and Robin.
Longtime The First 48 viewers know that Tulsa Homicide has a lot of impressive characters, and so this week I'm tipping my hat to Detective Ronnie Leatherman, who may be the most chill person in the history of the show. If you partnered him with Det. Scott DeMeester from Atlanta Homicide you might have the universe's most calm team of detectives (and possibly also one of the tallest).
But quips aside it's respectable how Leatherman is always able to maintain his temperament no matter what the job throws at him. Working homicide means a lot of difficult experiences and a lot of difficult people, and when it comes to Leatherman specifically, he's gotten more than a few cases that test that patience. There was season 18's "A Fighting Chance," where all his initial witnesses were drunk. Leatherman's only reaction was a sarcastic comment about how much he loves "drunk drama" and then he got on with it.

Or there was season 17's "Old Wounds," where the victim's boyfriend not only refused to give Leatherman and his partner Jason White any usable information, he decided to play stupid. The suspect tried to claim that the victim was the intended target but when White asked who her ex was, he replied with "Some guy." Leatherman, without missing a beat, shot back "No shit, Sherlock. Her ex-boyfriend's a guy." He is a master of sarcasm. But that goes to show how nothing gets under his skin. Leatherman just puts his head down and grinds his cases out. The building could be on fire around him and he'd probably still be working.
The Ronnie Leatherman and Jason White partnership has also been a lot of fun to watch. They work well together because they're both very calm and methodical; they're sort of the contrast to the dynamic duo of Justin Ritter and Matt Frazier, who were always intense and raring to go. Leatherman and White match each other equally well both in terms of their investigative approach and their personalities. They've had some amusing conversations on the show—like Leatherman saying his partner's spirit animal would be a squirrel—and one can only imagine how many others they've had that The First 48 doesn't show.
One other thing that's cool about Ronnie Leatherman is he's an outstanding team player. Tulsa Homicide is a department where everyone's a team player, but even in episodes that he's not featured in, Leatherman pops up someplace. He's so helpful that I actually get concerned when there's a Tulsa episode that he doesn't appear in. I just always expect him to be there. And he still is there—Leatherman backed up White in "A Beautiful Life" this season—so we can look forward to more of his intractable awesomeness in season 22.
The First 48 airs Thursdays at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT on A&E. Fans can also watch every episode on the A&E app with a cable provider login. For the previous article in this series, spotlighting Det. Jermaine Rogers of Mobile Homicide, click here.

On Oct. 31st 2014, we received Michael Graetzel for an evening conference, co-organized by swissnex China and Shanghai Institute of Ceramics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (SICCAS). The eminent EPFL Swiss professor exposed to a numerous attentive crowd mostly composed of local students and researchers the whereabouts of his invention: the Dye Sensitized Solar (DSC) Cell. This technology, also called Graetzel cell, has triggered a worldwide interest in the past 30 years, with almost every top university of the world contributing to the advances of this revolutionary invention that mimics natural photosynthesis to generate electricity in a cost effective fashion. Prof. Graetzel and his eponymous cell are now celebrities in the science world and several companies and institutions (including SICCAS) already manufacture this product around the globe. But there is more... The understanding of the physic-chemical mechanisms and the advance materials making know-how acquired in the process have allowed the scientific community to come up with a new solar cell, almost twice as efficient and even cheaper than Graetzel's first child (to use his own words): the Perovskite solar cell. This new born cousin of the DSC still has a long road before complying to market requirements, but there is no doubt it will soon power our grid and decorate our consumer electronics!


November 8, 2010; Source: Atlanta Journal Constitution | If you look at the "news" button on the website of Progressive Redevelopment Inc., Georgia's largest nonprofit housing developer, you won't find any articles dated after late 2009—for good reason. The once high-flying PRI, a well-respected nonprofit CDC, is being foreclosed on left and right.
Six of its subsidized apartment complexes are in default. The result: some 1,000 lower income households may be displaced from their apartments as the properties are vacated and boarded up. All told, PRI and its partners owe north of $74 million on various projects and are in default on 10 loans. The state's Department of Community Affairs cut off PRI's funding early this year, and some state officials think that PRI is only moments from going out of business.
PRI's founder and CEO, Bruce Gunter, acknowledges that the organization is out of money, but he contends, "We're fighting for our survival." PRI was long considered a top flight CDC, so this news is more than surprising and probably distressing in the CDC community. Now that PRI is near the end of its run, nonprofits should be analyzing what should have been seen as the indications of its likely demise a year ago, two years ago, or even three years ago, when corrective actions might have been taken.
One indication of trouble was that despite developing $100 million worth of properties, PRI never accumulated a reserve fund, meaning that the organization couldn't cover operating costs and repairs when the economy turned bad (Gunter said things started getting bad for PRI in 2007). Having no reserves should have been a reason for PRI and its partners to sound the alarms. Or how about in 2008 when an audit showed PRI annually spending $1 million more on operations and maintenance than the income generated by its properties.
PRI may have been a victim of the housing markets and the economy, but other CDCs have weathered the same conditions that PRI is succumbing to. The challenge now is not for PRI to fight for its existence, but for the city, the state, and the nonprofit sector to come together to see how they can protect the housing of PRI's tenants, including the many PRI tenants who were once homeless and living in supported housing.

Philosophy is recognized as an expansive educational discipline, one touching on countless areas of life. This extremely nuanced and complex area of study has been shaped by the influence of pioneers in the field of philosophy Below, you will find some of the most influential philosophers of all time.
Aristotle was a Greek philosopher and polymath during the Classical period in Ancient Greece. Taught by Plato, he was the founder of the Lyceum, the Peripatetic school of philosophy, and the Aristotelian tradition.
Plato was an Athenian philosopher during the Classical period in Ancient Greece, founder of the Platonist school of thought and the Academy, the first institution of higher learning in the Western world.
Immanuel Kant was a German philosopher and one of the central Enlightenment thinkers. Kant's comprehensive and systematic works in epistemology, metaphysics, ethics, and aesthetics have made him one of the most influential figures in modern Western philosophy.
Karl Marx was a German philosopher, economist, historian, sociologist, political theorist, journalist and socialist revolutionary.
Socrates was a Greek philosopher from Athens who is credited as a founder of Western philosophy and the first moral philosopher of the Western ethical tradition of thought.
Bertrand Russell was a British polymath. As an academic, he worked in philosophy, mathematics, and logic. His work has had a considerable influence on mathematics, logic, set theory, linguistics, artificial intelligence, cognitive science, computer science, and various areas of analytic philosophy, especially philosophy of mathematics, philosophy of language, epistemology and metaphysics.
David Hume was a Scottish Enlightenment philosopher, historian, economist, librarian and essayist, who is best known today for his highly influential system of philosophical empiricism, skepticism, and naturalism.
Thomas Aquinas was an Italian Dominican friar, philosopher, Catholic priest, and Doctor of the Church. An immensely influential philosopher, theologian, and jurist in the tradition of scholasticism.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel was a German philosopher considered one of the most important figures in German idealism. He is one of the fundamental figures of Western philosophy, with his influence extending to the entire range of contemporary philosophical issues, from aesthetics to ontology to politics, both in the analytic and continental tradition.
René Descartes was a French philosopher, mathematician, and scientist who invented analytic geometry, linking the previously separate fields of geometry and algebra.
The following are the top philosophers in the field today according to our machine-powered Influence Rankings, which are drawn from a numerical score of academic achievements, merits, and citations across Wikipedia/data, Crossref, and an ever-growing body of data.
Sally Haslanger started her career in the areas of analytic metaphysics and epistemology, Haslanger has since built on ancient philosophy foundations to create notable work in the realms of social and political philosophy. Haslanger is perhaps best known for her work in feminist theory and critical race theory, applying ancient and metaphysical principles to these relatively modern areas of inquiry.
Daniel Dennett is a philosopher concerned with questions of the mind and cognitive science, and is colloquially known as one of the "Four Horsemen of New Atheism." In particular, Dennett is known for calling for empirical explanations for processes of the mind, proposing models of thought and perception that are similar to mechanical calculation.
Linda Martín Alcoff is best known for her intersectional approach to issues of race, gender, identity, and epistemology. Alcoff identifies location as a major component in both self-identity and how we identify and relate to others.
Martha Nussbaum is a significantly influential voice of feminism and liberalism. Her work draws on Aristotelianism and ancient Greek tragedy to investigate contemporary feminist theory and issues. Nussbaum also investigates the philosophy of emotion, often finding overlap between these realms, such as tying justice and ethics to questions about human flourishing.
David Chalmers is best known for his insistence in the philosophy of mind that "the problem of consciousness" cannot be easily dismissed. Calling the subjective feel of conscious experience "the hard problem," Chalmers has argued, famously, that purely scientific treatments of consciousness must grapple with the hard problem—and to date, we do not have a plausible scientific explanation of consciousness.
Jennifer Saul ′ has had a large influence in two areas of philosophy, not immediately or obviously connected: analytic philosophy (especially of language), and the philosophy of feminism.
Noam Chomsky is either one of the most important linguists in modern times, one of the most important political thinkers, or (most often) both. Chomsky's role in modern linguistic philosophy is enough to make him well known and influential in academia. However, Chomsky is perhaps better known to the general public as a major political thinker and dissident.
Jürgen Habermas is known for his work on communicative rationality, a position that places emphasis on rationality developing out of interpersonal communication, rather than objective structures in the universe, as with traditional rationalism in philosophy.
Robert Bernasconi is perhaps best well-known for his work on critical philosophy of race, and as a reader of Martin Heidegger and Emmanuel Levinas , whose works are widely represented in Bernasconi's catalog.
George Yancy is best known for his scholarly work in critical whiteness studies, critical phenomenology, critical philosophy of race, and African American philosophy. He is a prolific writer with more than 150 published works.

Interviews with Top Philosophers
Dr. Khaldoun Sweis discusses the power of story in connecting with students, relativism versus literalism, what is true about truth, and much more.in our interview, What is True About Truth?.
The following are the most influential books in the field of philosophy today according to our backstage Ranking Analytics tool, which calculates the influence of various sources in both academics and popular culture using a numerical scoring of citations across Wikipedia/data, Crossref, and an ever-growing body of data.
A Theory of Justice by John Rawls was undoubtedly the most influential work of political theory in the analytical tradition during the second half of the twentieth century. It is best-known as the source of the classical Rawlsian idea that a just theory of government must be arrived at from behind a "veil of ignorance," meaning that the author of the theory may not know what his own position would be within the society he is recommending.
Being and Time by Martin Heidegger is admired by thousands as the greatest philosopher of the twentieth century, despite his collaboration with the Nazi regime.. It is incontrovertible that Being and Time , along with its signature themes of Dasein (human consciousness), Geworfenheit ("thrownness" of Dasein into the world), Sorge (care or concern of Dasein for certain ends that matter deeply to it), and many others, have had an incalculable impact on the development Continental philosophy, especially existentialism.
The Nicomachean Ethics by Aristotle sets out his practical philosophy (theory of human action) and moral theory. The book has had an overwhelming impact, becoming the foundation for Christian moral philosophy. Aristotelian or "virtue" ethics then fell out of favor from the time of the Scientific Revolution until about the 1980s. However, it is undergoing a vigorous revival today.
Critique of Pure Reason by Immanuel Kant taught that all knowledge is ultimately a posteriori, but that it is necessarily interpreted by the pre-existing cognitive structures of the human mind as conforming to certain determinate a priori conceptual forms, such as three-dimensional space, time, and causation. Moreover, according to this doctrine, we find the world intelligible because we impose the structure of our own mind upon it.
Symposium by Plato includes among its characters, in addition to Socrates, the comic playwright Aristophanes and the famous aristocrat and future general and politician, Alcibiades. The theme of the dialogue is the nature of love (eros). The Symposium is one of the most accessible and popular of Plato's dialogues.
Metaphysics by Aristotle contains Aristotle's "first philosophy," that is, his analysis of the most general and fundamental features of reality. Among the many topics covered in it, we may mention as holding special interest his penetrating discussions of being as such ("being qua being"), the various ways in which things may be said to exist (the "categories"), such basic features of reality as matter, form, change, actuality, and potentiality, and the four basic types of explanation for why change occurs (the "four causes").
Philosophical Investigations by Ludwig Wittgenstein was assembled posthumously from his manuscripts and first published in an English translation. Wittgenstein views philosophy as an "illness" and the proper role of the philosopher as that of a "therapist" who attempts to cure the human intelligence of its "bewitchment" by language.
The Republic by Plato is one of Plato's most important and most read dialogues. Its subject is the nature of justice and the best form of government. However, the dialogue also ranges widely across many of Plato's other philosophical concerns, containing several of the philosopher's most important texts dealing with the theory of "forms" (see #5 above), such as the analogies of the Sun, the Divided Line, and the Cave.
The Conscious Mind: In Search of a Fundamental Theory by David Chalmers ranges widely over contemporary work in neurobiology, cognitive science, and philosophy of mind. He makes several crucial distinctions and argues that nothing we currently know about the brain or the mind lends any support at all to the belief that "consciousness" in the basic sense of subjectivity or phenomenal experience (as opposed to its functional role) can be explained in any reductive terms whatsoever. The author's notion of subjectivity as the distinctive "hard problem" of consciousness has now become the standard way to frame the problem in analytical philosophy.
The Structure of Scientific Revolutions by Thomas Kuhn is not a work of philosophy strictly speaking. It is a work of history, philosophy, and sociology of science. However, some of the basic ideas advanced in it by the author have had a very strong influence on academic philosophy.

Q: API to add users to an iTunes Connect account I've come across a service that allows you to add your iTunes Connect credentials, and through some API or ??? it generates a user on their behalf on your iTunes Connect account.
It actually works and automatically creates a user with the roles of reports, sales, and technical.
I tried looking through the iTunes Connect docs for some guidance on how to do this but I can't seem to find how this is done.  Would appreciate any thoughts.
The site is Fliptopia and this is the link to the sync page but you have to create an account and login to see it.  So if you don't want to create an account, I've posted a screen shot for your reference.
Additionally, I'd like to find a way to automate the invitation of a user to an Apple developer account as well incase someone happens to know to know of a way to do that.  Haven't seen any examples though.

A: It isn't an API. You're giving your Apple ID username and password to this service. This lets them log in and perform actions as you, including adding users to your team (as well as anything else they want).
Giving your Apple ID password to another site, or using someone else's username and password (as this site is doing!) is a violation of the iTunes Connect Terms of Service:

Account and Password. As a registered user of iTunes Connect, you must establish an account ("Account"). You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of your Account. You may not reveal your Account information to anyone else, allow anyone else to use your Account, or use anyone else's Account.

So I wouldn't recommend it. If you want users to add you to their iTunes Connect account, give them instructions on how to do it manually.

Riot to support walkout, but will not change policy regarding active lawsuits
Riot sent an update to Upcomer today with its official stance.
Aaron Mickunas · 6 May 2019
Riot Games will actively support its employees participating in the walkout today, but it will not change its policy on lawsuits currently in litigation, the company told Upcomer in an update today.
In the update, Riot voiced its full support of those walking out, promising no "retaliation of any kind as a result of participating (or not)." The game development company also urged upper management to clear up meeting schedules to allow its employees to participate in the walkout during the 2pm to 4pm PT window today. The goal of the walkout, according to several Riot employees like Mel Capperino-Garcia on Twitter, is to show that the employees deserve a change in policy both for future lawsuits involving harassment and sexism, as well as those currently involved in them.
According to this update from Riot, the company acknowledges the walkout, but policy will not change as a result of it—future cases may allow for employees to bow out of arbitration, but those in ongoing cases will not.
Here is the full update from Riot Games to Upcomer on May 6, 2019.
"We support Rioters making their voices heard today. We have asked all managers to make every accommodation to allow Rioters to participate during the 2-4pm window, including freeing up meeting times. We respect Rioters who choose to walk out today and will not tolerate retaliation of any kind as a result of participating (or not).
While we will not make a change to our policies while in active litigation, last Thursday we announced that we've made the call to pivot our approach. As soon as active litigation is resolved, we will give all new Rioters the choice to opt-out of mandatory arbitration for individual sexual harassment and sexual assault claims. At that time, we will also commit to have a firm answer on potentially expanding the scope and extending this opt-out to all Rioters. We are working diligently to resolve all active litigation so that we can quickly take steps toward a solution.
As we have been for the past week, we will continue to listen to Rioters regarding their thoughts on arbitration and we're thankful for everyone that has taken the time to meet with leadership about this issue."

Discussion in 'Power Supplies' started by ChristmasLover, Nov 30, 2012.
Just wondering the advantages/disadvantages of everyone seeming to want to use DC vs AC.
I live in Florida and my power out of the wall sockets is AC. Should I be looking for AC lighting equipment or buy DC converters and look for DC lighting equipment?
Low voltage DC will not harm people watching your show if they start touching stuff theyr are not suposed to.
LEDs are DC devices, what that means is that they only conduct the flow of electricity in one direction.
Direct Current - Flows for + to - in one direction and thus is the best choice for LEDs. Leds that dont convert voltage from an AC to a DC supply will exhibit flickering as the the AC current flows back and forth with the set frequency of the supply.
Now onto the safety part of this then you may want to read this post regarding electrical safety and how the flow of current and resistance can effect the human body.
Now another advantage to low voltage DC lighting is that you dont get nuisence GFCI (RCD) trips like you would get using AC lighting when ever it rains.
You must also remember that in Australia we use 240 volts which has a lot more energy and potential killing power than 110 volts, (110v is still very deadly) so it makes it an easy decsion to use a safe low voltage power source in our yards as this dramatically increases the safety factor and allows people to get involved in the hobby at a much safer level.
For me, DC was the only choice from a safety point of view. Sure, I have a few 240v rope lights and one 240v snow globe but everything else is low voltage DC.
Apart from all the great reasons mentioned above, safety was my prime concern ( the fact that all the coolest LED stuff is DC was a bonus ).
Our house is behind a brick wall so our display is very much a "wander amongst the lights" kind of thing. And so we get plenty of kids visiting and the last thing we want is a shocking experience.
We have a small playground also decorated with lights for our son which some of the kids play on when they visit and for that we only use solar or battery powered lights.
Ty for all the data. So esentially i would just be buying a bunch of AC to DC converters to power my future show? Extension cord from wall socket to PSU(dc) then on to the magical light show?
I am really interested in the E1.E31 stuff as computer geek stuff is my background also seems to provide the most flexibilty. I want to eventually have lots of universes running.
Many strings of lights can be connected to one of these power supplies.
I live in Florida and my power out of the wall sockets is AC.
Safety is a driving factor. Low power consumption is a benefit.
Keep in mind you are in a forum that was started and is based on safety with low voltage displays. Main reason, their common voltage is 240v compared to our 120v. 120v is still very dangerous. The other thing to keep in mind about this site is many of the folks here have walking traffic around and/or through their displays due to their hot summer Christmas weather. You have mild weather and may have the same foot traffic and therefore safety concerns.
Although my entire display is AC, I do not know of any advantage that AC has over DC other than AC does not have voltage drops over long distance wire runs.
I do not know of any advantage that AC has over DC other than AC does not have voltage drops over long distance wire runs.
Just to clarify, AC suffers from voltage drop just like DC. A drop of 5v on 110/240v will not be noticeable, however the same 5v drop on 12v would be noticeable.
Just something to remember if you are using 24v AC incan (or LED*) strings.
*= if you are using 24v AC LED strings you should think about changing them to 30v DC.
At least that's my understanding of it all (please correct me if I am wrong).
I think I will go the DC route for saftey and it will be lighter on the wallet in the long run.
Can anyone give me an estimate or PICS of how many DC converter are placed in a small to medium ligh show? I know its all relative to the amount of LEDs and injections to light strips ect., but a ballpark firgure would be ok.
So i am guessing i wont need as many as i was thinking lol....From what i read on here I was thinking i needed a PSU for each RGB string lol. ???
Off to start purchasing items for next years show. I will get it all up and running in my garage of the next year hopefully.
Im not sure what gave you that impression because in all the manuals and documentation here it shows using a common switch mode power supply instead of individual wall warts (power packs).
Didnt mean I needed lots of wall outlets. I thought would need multiple PSU's to run a long sting of RGB. IE injecting a PSU every strand.
After looking through the docs i see that one PSU and "inject" at multiple spots along a single long strand.


The government should add a 'super payment option' that allows graduates to offset the cost of their HELP repayments.
Explainer: how will the changes to HELP student loans affect you?
Students will now have to pay back more of their loan, and repay quicker.
A flat-rate fee on all student loans is a fairer economic proposal.
The threshold for paying back student loans will vary depending on which party wins the election.
Higher education in policy paralysis after Budget 2016 – what now?
While the government finally ruled out full fee deregulation in its 2016 budget, it is still contemplating uncapping fees for some degree courses. Here's what else is being discussed.
Increasing the amount that students pay towards their degree is likely to be on the cards of higher education in this year's election.
Combining a lower repayment scale with a super option would allow for earlier repayment of HELP loans and greater flexibility for graduates to manage living expenses early in their careers.
Academic experts respond to the latest report by the Parliamentary Budget Office on the impact of student loans on the budget.
Is lowering the student loan repayment threshold fair for students?
A new report has called on the government to lower the threshold at which university graduates repay their debt from $54,126 to $42,000. But is this fair on students?
Australians who live in another country for more than six months will now have to pay back their student loans.
Students rated their financial literacy quite low, which means many students who have managed to secure a place at university don't believe they understand about debt.
The HECS revolution remains seriously incomplete because it does not extend to many parts of the vocational education and training sector - which still suffers from the scourge, hostility and unfairness of upfront fees.
Overseas debtors should have to repay their student loans, but it won't recoup as much as repayments from deceased estates.
Unpaid HELP debts are a problem, while super contributions may be lost. Should students use super to repay HELP?

Já existem cerca de 20 participações mas não deixem de consultar as previsões do próprio Tony Carrer, num post com o título "eLearning Technology: Ten Predictions for eLearning 2008".
Marcamos um encontro no SL? Há interessados?
Que tal, quarta-feira, 22 horas no SL?
Lá estaremos... sugiro que no espaço da C3D.
"As the Net Generation places increasingly greater demands on educators, students and teachers must jointly consider innovative ways of teaching and learning. In this, educators are supported by the fact that the Net Generation wants to learn. However, these same educators should not fail to realize that this generation learns differently from previous generations. Kassandra Barnes, Raymond Marateo, and S. Pixy Ferris offer some defining characteristics of Net Geners' learning style and then evaluate ways in which educators are adapting teaching in order to guarantee effective learning by a generation of digital natives. The article's evaluation and advice carries particular resonance as it is written from an insiders' perspective—by two members of the Net Generation and one educator who enjoys teaching them."

Investigations underway over deadly Iran university bus crash
December 31, The Iran Project – Investigations are still underway following 10 were killed and 27 others injured as a bus carrying students overturned last week (Dec. 25) on the campus of Islamic Azad University's Science and Research Branch in Tehran, nestling in the foothills of the Alborz Mountains.
According to a report by the official website of the Iranian Presidency, the Council of Ministers convened on Sunday (Dec. 30) in a session that was chaired by President Hassan Rouhani and discussed the causes of the tragic bus accident.
During the meeting, the ministries of 'Science, Research and Technology', and 'Interior' submitted a report on the causes of the accident that happened inside the campus.
President Rouhani tasked the ministries of 'Science, Research and Technology', and 'Interior', and the Vice-Presidency for Science and Technology Affairs to form a committee for investigating the causes of the accident, and carry out the necessary measures to prevent such accidents from happening again.
Meanwhile, Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani ordered the Education Commission to investigate the circumstances surrounding the bus crash.
"It is necessary that the parliament's Education and Research Commission fully pursue this issue and submit the results (of their probe) to the parliament," he said, adding that all individuals who are to blame should be identified.
Also, Iranian Judiciary Chief Ayatollah Sadeq Amoli Larijani urged the country's prosecutor general to swiftly deal with the case of the accident.
In a message, Ayatollah Amoli Larijani said, "The bitter and tragic incident necessitates the attention of the relevant authorities more than ever."
Despite the taken measures, hundreds of students of Iran's Azad University have protested and demanded the resignation of university officials.
They also called for an emergency center to be set up on the campus and for guard rails to be erected along the road where the accident occurred
University officials initially blamed the crash on the driver having a stroke. The coroner's office later denied that claim.
Many students and others have instead pointed to the university's aging bus fleet and poor maintenance and have demanded new vehicles be purchased.
